Project 2025: Trump Administration Implements Half of Heritage Foundation's Government Overhaul Plan

Imagine a blueprint so ambitious it aims to reshape the entire U.S. government, drawn up by the Heritage Foundation and released in April 2023 as Project 2025. This 900-page plan, detailed in its own Mandate for Leadership document from the Heritage Foundation, promises to restore the family as America's centerpiece, dismantle the administrative state, and defend national sovereignty. Fast forward to February 2026: the Center for Progressive Reform reports that the Trump administration has initiated or completed 53 percent of its domestic administrative policy agenda, with 283 of 532 recommended actions across 20 federal agencies now in motion. Reproductive Freedom for All tracks 51 percent implementation, including 23 completed actions out of 57 monitored, led by figures like Russell Vought, Trump's OMB Director and a Project 2025 co-author who now enforces these policies government-wide. Key proposals target federal agencies head-on. The plan calls for eliminating the Department of Education to boost school choice, as outlined in the AFSC summary, while axing Head Start, which serves over 833,000 low-income children annually, per Democracy Forward's People's Guide. On labor, it seeks to scrap civil service protections, replacing thousands of employees with political appointees, and end overtime pay for 4.3 million workers, according to the same guide. Immigration reforms propose dismantling the Department of Homeland Security, mass deportations via active-duty military, and ending birthright citizenship, with Stephen Miller, a key architect, now as Deputy Chief of Staff. Experts warn of sweeping impacts. The ACLU highlights threats to civil rights, like censoring classroom discussions on race and gender, while the NAACP Legal Defense Fund notes rollbacks on voting rights and expanded death penalties. "Project 2025 is the conservative movement’s blueprint for weakening our government and building an authoritarian presidency," states the Center for Progressive Reform. These changes connect a grand vision: consolidating executive power, as Wikipedia describes, to overhaul governance from education to borders. Yet with three years left in the term, trackers like Project 2025 Observer signal more milestones ahead, including potential Supreme Court challenges and midterm battles. As implementation accelerates, the true scope of this ambition hangs in the balance. Thank you for tuning in, listeners—come back next week for more.
